Travelling to Venice, Verona, Florence, Pisa, Milan Italy

Travelling to Venice, Verona, Florence, Pisa, Milan Italy

I woke up early for my 11 am Wizz air flight to Venice Italy. No flight delays, and the weather is perfectly fine. The plane landed at exactly 12:15 pm. Since I do not carry any euros, I withdrawn money from the ATM near the exit.

I looked for bus heading to Piazza Roma, the fare cost 12€ one way. If you need RT you can get it for 22€. Piazza Roma is the last stop. Bus ATVO. The bus driver also gave me a free map. As soon as I sat, I started mapping out the places I would like to visit.

Skydiving in Czech Republic

Adventure Travel/DIY Itineraries/Travel Tips
Skydiving in Czech Republic

One of my greatest challenges to myself is to do Skydiving. I did bungee jumping before, so this year, I took the challenge. I skydived in my 27th Birthday!

I booked my sky diving at Skycentrum, you can contact them through Veronika (fiserova.veronika@post.cz) – She’s the nicest ever! I paid 5620 KC (213 Euros) which includes Tandem jump + USB HD Video and Photos, and RT transfers.

The jump took place in Pribram airport, an hour away from Prague. The shuttle will take you there, as soon as you arrive in the place, you’ll see the amazing crew. First, you will be asked to wear the jump suit, get short training or should I say rules to follow when jumping. You have nothing to be scared off, all the crew are professional.

Short Trip to Salzburg and Hallstatt Austria

Budget Travel/DIY Itineraries
Short Trip to Salzburg and Hallstatt Austria

Are you a huge fanatic of Sound of Music? Then, Salzburg Austria is your best destination. I’m a great fanatic of the 1950’s musical, lead by Von Trapp Family Singer. From Prague, I packed my backpack and head to Salzburg. The cheapest way to get to Salzburg is via Munich, book a ticket to flixbus, and present the QR code to the bus driver. I booked my 1 night accomodation at Hotel Vuona Vita via booking.com for 69 euros – This is the cheapest I got which is good for 2 persons. I suggest to book it ahead so it won’t cost you much.

It’s easy to get around Salzburg, you can take the bus to get to the Mirabelle Garden. You must not miss this lovely place!

6 Days and 5 Nights in Paris  – DIY Itinerary

Back when I was 15, I dream of going to Paris, perhaps, inspired by french language, or Lovers in Paris – a drama I watched way back then. I heard that Paris is one of the most romantic city in the world, and is known as the city of love.  I’ve been imagining myself walking alone in paris, while enjoying a breathtaking view and perhaps listening to music. Fantastic isn’t it? Now, it’s my chance to make my teenage dream come true.

4 Days, 3 Nights Rome, Italy DIY Itinerary

DIY Itineraries/Travel Stories/Travel Tips
4 Days, 3 Nights Rome, Italy DIY Itinerary

The easiest way to get around Rome is by walking. Everything is worth seeing, each tourist location is within reach. Just beware of pickpockets especially in the metro and bus. Avoid bus 64 as much as possible. If you are planning to visit Colloseum, beware of those men dress in Gladiator. They will say picture taking is free, but after taking picture, they will ask for 10 Euro! Here is the itinerary I prepared for my visit. However, I failed to follow it, because when I get there, I just keep on walking. It’s fun to walk because there so many people walking by. Trevi fountain is under construction but it’s still worth visiting. Italian men are charming indeed 🙂 Accommodation: Walter Rooms Guest House Via Carlo Alberto 24, Central Station, 00185 Rome, Italy   How to get to guest house from the Airport                 Take FM1 Link, get off at Ostiense Station (LINE B), take metro toward Termini, and transfer to LINE A, get off at Vitorio. Or. Take Fm1 towards Termini, take bus 105 towards Stazio Grotte Celoni, 2 stops, get off at Piazza Vittorio Emmanuelle, or take Metro A and get off at Vitorio €8 Between 08:00 […]
